專家說明


Baron Henri de Rothschild was one of the most entrepreneurial and eclectic member of the Rothschild family. He was a very public figure and a prolific author of many articles and books on medicine, theater and detective stories. His collection composed mainly of 18th century works of art, especially portraits, was acquired principally through inheritance. From then onwards he endeavoured to expand it by purchasing only Louis XV and Louis XVI pieces recommended by museums curators such as Emile Molinier and supplied by dealers such as Jacques Seligmann.
